On Finding God

I’ve noticed a trend on Twitter and I’m not sure if it’s representative of the world at large, or a phenomenon of the social media. The vast majority of the atheists I’ve had the pleasure of interacting with on Twitter have attempted to disabuse me of my faith through mockery and personal insults, rather than reason and logic.

In the modern Western world most everyone is familiar with the basic story of Christmas, even if they aren’t Christian. Linus Van Pelt did a pretty good job of explaining it back in 1965: The passage Linus reads in the video above is from the book of Luke and it’s amazing to see how the author […]

A Moral Inventory

I’ll be honest, things are going to get a little uncomfortable. This is the step in the recovery process where things start to get very real.  It’s a good time to recall the line in the serenity prayer that says “hardship is a pathway to peace”. A series of articles on recovery. I’m on a team of […]
